Pump It Up! | Increasing Penis Size & Girth - Jelqing

Okay, I'd be a liar if I said I didn't laugh at this whole thing. In fact, I found out about jelqing at work. I had picked up a pamphlet about the HydroMax penis pump and read through it, then saw an ad for jelqing cream. My co-worker and I had no idea what the hell jelqing was, so we looked it up. Good laughs!

But in all seriousness now, I'll explain the jelqing process and give links to sites you can go to for more information.

What's “Jelqing”?

Jelqing is a form of penis enlargement exercise that uses a milking-type motion to allow blood to flow throughout the penis with ease. Essentially and hypothetically, the stroking motion helps stretch it, adding length and girth. According to most websites, the word is Middle Eastern for “milking”.

As with all exercises, please perform this with caution.

Steps

Lubricate the penis before beginning to jelq. You can use an enlargement gel/cream, oil, thick water based lubricant, or silicone lubricant.

Your penis should be firm, but not hard enough to penetrate. Do not jelq with a full erection. That is way too much strain on your penis all at once.

Use an OK Grip and start at the base of the penis. Move up the length of the penis, stopping before you reach the head. Repeat this motion, always stopping at the head of the penis. Continue this for 5-20 minutes per day,

at least 5 times a week.

The folks over at PEGym recommend this routine.
5 minutes – Warm up

5 minutes – Penis stretches*

10 minutes – Basic jelq

5 minutes – Warm down

*See this video for penis stretch techniques.

If you've noticed your penis becoming stronger and your erections becoming firmer, then that means it's working! But if you have been experiencing difficulties with your erections, slow down the jelqing.

Warming Up and Cooling Down

I always make a joke that my partner and I are like fire and water because he's a Pisces and I'm a Sagittarius. I heat him up, he cools me down. On a similar note, how does one “warm up” their penis? Hopefully not like one would start a friction fire...

You'll want to warm up your penis at least 10 minutes before jelqing. Some methods include:

• Taking a hot shower
• Using a Bathmate HydroMax pump
• Using a heating pad
• Wrapping your penis with a warm washcloth

Warming down:

• Using lotion, massage your penis for 1-2 minutes.
• Wrap your penis is a warm washcloth for at least 5 minutes.

Jelqing Devices

I won't get too into these because there's not much to say, in my opinion. They look like padded clamps, but are designed to assist you with jelqing. Here is a link to Jelq Machine's product page.

Side Effects

There are some websites that say jelqing doesn't work at all, such as Cosmopolitan. In addition, they've added some negative side effects of jelqing. These include:

• Desensitization of penis
• Disfiguring penis
• Irritation
• Scarring
• Tearing blood vessels

Does it actually work?

Honestly, there's no way to know for sure unless you do it yourself. I did find some testimonials from various websites.

“I've been jelqing for more than 6 months. This is what I have learned.

I’ve experimented with different jelqing techniques and schedules over the past 6 months or so and I thought I would share what I have discovered. Of course, this is what works for me. It may not work for you.

I pretty much just jelq. I do some light stretching on and off but my main focus is jelqing.

I use an overhand alternating sitting down 2-3 second stroke.

Basically what I have discovered is that erect jelqing not only is dangerous, but completely ineffective.

I erect jelqed for two months and saw a decrease in length of .25 inch. My width was reduced by .50 inch. This was after recovery from three day impotence after I gave up erect jelqing as an “advanced” technique. Of course, we all know erect jelqing is dangerous. You could burst a vein. I think however it is unlikely you will burst a vein. In my experience, the real danger is loss of dick.

The worse advice you will ever hear is to erect jelq as an advanced technique. You know, to make your dick bigger means that it must be bigger when jelqing is the only way it will get bigger in reality. You know, dont do this as a beginner. This is false bullshit. Never do it!

Rest days are more important than jelqing days. You must rest. If not every other day than do a light schedule and take the weekend off.
Do not jelq erect or even close to it. 50 -70% is perfect. You need blood to force around in your dick. An erect dick stresses it too much and will need a very long recovery period. A recovery from damage and destruction and atrophy. Not growth.”

“I've been jelqing for 3 weeks. And i have seen and feel a noticeable increase in the girth of my penis. I jelq 5 days a week. I start of with a hot towel compress around my penis for about 5 min. That is followed by stretching my penis, by holding the head of my penis and pulling it straight out as far as possible I hold this for 5 mins. Rest for a min then twirl my penis to get blood flowing. I do the stretching 4 more times left ,right, up, down, after each I rest then twirl. Then I begin the jeqing exercise. Get the penis semi erect (use massage oil ) make an ok sign wrap around base of penis firmly and stroke towards the head, as you get towards the head put other hand at base and repeat. I do this for 300 to 500 strokes. Once I finish jelqing I massage my penis for 5 min then wrap with a hot towel for 5 min. I am also taking a herbal penis enhancement pill twice a day. I have experienced no negatives with the jelqing and so far it does appear to work for me.” (http://www.steadyhealth.com/topics/anyone-had-success-with-jelqing)
